Targeting and advertising cookies

Targeting and advertising cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator's permission. Targeting and advertising cookies remember that you have visited a website and share this information with other organisations such as advertisers.

We use advertising on other websites to bring visitors to our site. We use cookies provided by a number of sites to track the number of visitors from advertisements to see how successful they have been.

Cookie types

We use three types of cookies on our website. These cookies are:

1. Session cookies

Session cookies are only active during the time you are using the website. As soon as you leave the site, they are deleted from your device or browser cache memory. Typically, we use these cookies for completing forms.

When you enter details on a form, a cookie will be used to store that information. If you then go back to a previous page, the cookie will remember the data you have entered so that you don't have to enter this again.

2. Persistent cookies

These are cookies that will remain on your device after you have left the site or closed your web browser. They are typically used to remember settings.

3. Third party cookies

We have carefully selected other companies to work with in order to give the best service to our customers. Like most websites, we use third party companies to provide analytics software. We use these as they are able to provide specialist software that allows for a deeper insight.

These companies deploy cookies to provide us with information about how people use our site. This information is completely anonymous and is only used to make improvements to our website.

Some third party tools will have a policy to use first-party cookies on client sites for one or more of the following purposes: to help identify visitors; assess usage patterns and perform traffic analysis; identify preferences; diagnose problems with our servers; analyse trends; and otherwise administer their products and services.

Similar technologies - Embedded weblinks:

Cookies are the most well-known form of online tracking, but there are other ways that we can track the browsing behaviour of a user. This includes 'embedded weblinks' which are small objects or weblinks that are embedded into a page or an email.

Marketing and service emails from Laite Interactive contain embedded weblinks which are then used to tell us how you have interacted with an email we have sent you. If you have given consent for marketing emails, you are effectively agreeing to the use of these embedded weblinks.
